31 Mar 2022 in Senate:
From what the Senators have said in their contribution, it is apparent that this Bill is long overdue. The cotton industry is a giant that ought to have woken this country many years ago. I quite agree with Senator for Migori that Migori used to be a major cotton producing area. Southern Nyanza had four ginneries but none exists today. This is because production of cotton was affected after liberalization of the agricultural sector, which killed agriculture in this country. As I thank the Senators who have contributed, I wish to appeal to those who are going to become governors ...

of checking implementation is with the Committees, we want to make sure those Bills are properly implemented and that the country moves on in the right direction. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we can have Export Processing Zones (EPZs) in all our counties and nothing stops that.

Those of us who have been in Parliament for some time have been getting very concerned that Parliament is being diluted. Actually, Parliament has been diluted because of lack of such leaders as the Senator of Kirinyaga, Senator ...

Development Fund (CDF) has done this or that or that the governors have not done this or that. The Members of Parliament in the National Assembly believe that they are in competition with what happens in the counties. We, as defenders of devolution, have to stand very firm to defend some of these things. I join my colleagues in saying that this House should not even discuss The Division of Revenue Bill before we have concluded discussion on the issue of grants. We should villify any Senator who moves ahead to do that. I am surprised, that the Leader of ...

Mr Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am happy that Sen. Wambua has made it very clear that the Senate Majority Leader is the leader of all Government business. Sen. Olekina, there is no way you will stand here and present Government business. There is only one person who does that in the Senate and National Assembly.
